Mary and Family,
I wish there was something that I could say that would ease your grief but I know that nothing can. I haven't seen Bob in many years but I will never forget his sweet nature or his great smile. As a matter of fact the last time I saw him he had dropped you off at Weight Watchers meeting in Spring Lake and came in at the end of the meeting. I hadn't seen him in over 20 years and he was still the same great guy that I grew up with. His sister, Sally, used to babysit me and Bob and I spent many days together with Sally.
He was always so sweet and caring as was his whole family. He had a smile that would light up in his eyes and make you happy just seeing him.
My prayers are with you and your family.

To Bob 's beloved family
We are so very sorry for your loss of a funny, kind and welcoming man that we were privileged to meet and know as neighbors since 1989! Praying for peace and strength for all of you. He always stopped and talked no matter what was going on. He always had a story to tell. He will be Missed.

My heart is weeping today. Bob was a part of my life for as long as I can remember through my older brother. I will always remember his huge smile & that voice! He sang at my mothers funeral back in 2007 & his presence made it somehow more bearable. In the immortal words of Vince Gill: I wish I could see the angels faces when they hear that sweet voice sing. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family.

I knew Bob through Mona Shores Schools-first as a student and then as a fellow employee. Great sense of humor and always a smile on his face. My sympathies to the family.

Rob always had a hug and a smile for his "adoptive daughters" and loved making the kids laugh. He was also always interested in hearing the latest going on in our lives and a "say what?!!" when he thought he heard something completely different from what you actually said. So many things about him make me smile. Will love him and miss him forever.
